people confuse anonymity with privacy all the time, basically if your in public, you should have no delusions of privacy; I maybe anonymous because I'm just not that important, but that's not the same as privacy.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing, after looking at phish tank it occurred to me that it's a list of phishing sites; I've written a little script called chimmer and chummer weighs in at about 120 lines of perl, that send phishers a lot of bad data to obfuscate the good data. The tools to make life miserable for phishers are really pretty simple and could easily provoke such a response; there is nothing really difficult or unique about chummer, so there have to be a lot of work-alike scripts out there in the wild.
The frequencies in question are reserved for governmental use and the majority of the government user are local, and can be anyone from the city's sewer cleaning crew to the NSA.
The radio spectrum is pretty well divvied up and has been for a long time, there is some changes of course but it's usual allocated from the government's use back to the private usage. There are areas where there are some known overlap such as the military VHF FM band starts at 54.00Mhz and upwards as does civilian Television and FM radio frequencies. In such cases because the frequencies have been licensed to commercial stations, the military only uses non-interfering frequencies, however these openers are opperating on unlicensed frequencies so they would have to yield to military use if they caused any interference with the legally licensed operators of those frequencies.
Back in '74 I was stationed at Redstone, in April that year there were tornadoes basically everywhere from Florida to Michigan, and I saw three just dancing in the distance and they were glowing in the night from the electricity surging through them. Some of our school CW radars (uncalibrated) were clocking doppler in excess of 700MPH, I assume it was from shock-waves due to the lightning. One came through post and luckily it jumped and pass over us at 500 Ft. I'm damn lucky to be alive.
I modified my bike when I was ten, I had a tricycle wheel welded on to the front forks, and I put on some pipes on which I could put weight-lifting plates on to counter-ballence. Eventually I had it perfected to where I could go forward, backwards and even do nose-wheelies, back in 1964. I'm still surprised that the guy at the welding shop just did it for me.
In all fairness, shared hosting ISP's are notorious for not applying PHP updates to their systems, there are so many poorly written PHP appilications in use out there that one update or default configuration change can knock out a lot of customers.
Most PHP boards are pieces of crap, and most PHP boards are abandoned piles of steaming crap that are not only unmaintained, but are unmaintainable. There are also a few PHP boards out there that are not piles of crap, are actively maintained, are up to modern standards and secure. Even secure PHP boards are vulnerable when a 3 letter password stands between the website and the Evil(tm) haxors; a little due diligence can go a long ways here. When all else fails go to EvilHaxers.com and see which PHP board they use!
If memory serves me correctly, most of the source code for windows was splashed all over the internet not to awfully long ago; so those same evil(tm) haxors are going over M$ source code as well. If M$ is depending on security through obscurity, the problem is, they're not really obscure, therefore they're no secure.
Maybe those pus sucking whores are totally expended now that Novell and Microsoft are in bed together, makes you wonder who is the top and who is the bottom don't it.
Sounds to me like Justice Breyer never had a 'coon in his garage; they're cute as hell but smart, manipulative, curious and have a mischievous streak a mile wide. Move the sensor wouldn't even be an inconvenience to them.
"I just need to be able to connect to a modem and dial out." you should have asked, "Our digital PBX system isn't compatible with a computer modem, can we run a decicated phone line to your computer which will cost about $500.00 to install and $45.00 a month afterwards instead spending $20,000 on a bank of PBX modems?" People don't know what they want or need, they only know what they think they want or need, the hard part is first getting their wants and needs to coincide, then to get their real wants and needs and what they think they want and need to be the same. They hate telling you because if they clearly tell you what they want and you deliver it and it ain't right it's hard to blame others.
It may have been "scientific" but "Medal of Honor: Frontline," involving military combat, doesn't involve military combat, it involves the game developer biased and stylized version of military operations. In real combat anybody can kill anybody, and there are no power-ups or extra-lifes in the bank, so self-control and focus is also very necessary; the audacious behavior of the berserker highly prized in game play usually just gets you killed in real life. I wonder what they would have found if they used a more neutral game such as a D&D type game where puzzle solving, goal seeking and timing is interspersed with GOOD OL' hack and slash. When I was in the age-group studied, pong was the most violent video game out there.
locked doors don't do squat against bricks through a window In Detroit, they'll steal the bricks off a building and sell them! More likely to get in a building it's as simple as stealing a car and driving it through the wall. I saw on tv a guy that had driven a stolen car through the wall of a liqueur store and was stuck inside, so he just got drunk waiting for the police to arrive.
In mathematics and physics, chaos theory describes the behavior of certain nonlinear dynamical systems that under certain conditions exhibit a phenomenon known as chaos. Among the characteristics of chaotic systems, described below, is the sensitivity to initial conditions (popularly referred to as the butterfly effect). As a result of this sensitivity, the behavior of systems that exhibit chaos appears to be random, exhibiting an exponential error dispersion, even though the system is deterministic in the sense that it is well defined and contains no random parameters. Examples of such systems include the atmosphere, the solar system, plate tectonics, turbulent fluids, economics, population growth and the vast variety of dissipative structures. Chaos Theory
and that the real system is likely to be more like this Bifurcation diagram and the cause happened almost a century ago and the effect is still developing and we are very probably past a point of no-return and have been past it since before we anticipated its existence.
I view liberalism as a political philosophy that wants a strong centralized power that doles out the individuals rights and entitlements at their whim, so there isn't much difference between big-business, big-religion and big-government to me
No they are marketers primarily, I once read a book "If you want to catch mice, make a sound like cheese", a main point in the book is a customer who purchased something recently is more likely to make a near future purchase, so they honestly believe if you buy a sony labeled artist, you'll buy another sony labeled artist, which also means if you download a sony artist from a pirate, that's what you'll be most likely to do again and you'll also corrupt other purchaser along the way! If you really want to put the screws to 'em, throw a killer party, and put a sign over the sound system " all music played is released under the creative commons license and is free" and play good music.
If the US adds the tax, and China doesn't, it'll just make the problem worse, as products from China will become even cheaper... Now you understand the real goal of Koyoto, punish the Americans and give the 3rd world an unfair advantage.
I saw a report that indicated that producing a gallon of gasoline, actually releases more CO2 than producing a gallon of ethanol; the studies that showed EtOH production to have a negative gain used 1950's era technology to produce the crop and EtOH rather than modern techniques.

much better support for running as a limited user compared to WinXP SP2 or *nix?

Most of those keypads are RF linked, so they'd be jammed as well MUHAHAHA.

I started mine when I was about ten; had first-light when I was about thirty, now that I'm fifty I might put the parts back together again

It's been a while since I've seen a computer monitor, or television that didn't say made in China on the case.
